RTX (RTX) Stock Analysis & Forecast

Nov 4 close

$198.43−5.39 (−2.6%)

Gekko Brief

AI summaryNov 4 close

RTX shares fell 3.76% to $196.16 on 4 November, part of a broader defense-sector pullback following the midterm elections. Democratic gains in both the House and Senate raised concerns about future defense spending plans and could bring greater scrutiny of expensive defense programs, pressuring Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman and General Dynamics alongside RTX. Separately, RTX's Raytheon unit secured a DARPA contract under the PICASSO program to develop all-optical signal processing technology aimed at faster threat detection, a development described as positive but unrelated to the sell-off.

The stock closed at $198.43, down 2.6%, sitting between its 50-day average of $194.31 and 200-day average of $195.34, reflecting a mixed trend. The GekkoIndex reads 52.1, placing RTX in the Neutral zone, with the index down 2.4 over five days. Price sits 7.7% below Gekko Fair Value of $215.06.

RTX's next earnings report is scheduled for 26 January 2027, 82 days out and beyond a typical 20-trading-day holding window; the last quarter saw adjusted EPS of $2.26 against an estimate of $1.78, with a muted 0.3% reaction. No insider, Congress, or unusual options activity appears in the respective 90-day and 30-day windows. Seasonally, the next 20 trading days have averaged -1.1% over 5 years, rising in 3 of them. Thirteen analysts carry a consensus target of $229.17, with 9 buy and 4 hold ratings and no sell ratings.
